About Me

Bondurant, IA

I'm a stay-at-home mom even though my daughter is now 17 years old. I created this blog mainly because I wanted to be able to tryout for a Design Team (even though it's something I've wanted to do for awhile). However, I will be posting projects and sharing things about my life in general as they occur. :)

This weekend Operation Write Home had a card challenge . . . 10 challenges in all. While I wanted to do all 10, I ended up doing only 5 of them. But I did do a total of 38 cards. I liked a couple of them so much that I went gung-ho before realizing the time and that I needed to get a few more done.

But before I show you what I did, I want to invite everyone back on Sept. 28 at 8am to Oct. 1st 8am MST for another OWH Card Blog Hop hosted by CropChocolate's Design Team. We will be making cards for OWH and giving challenges to those who want to participate. There will be prizes given by CropChocolate in addition to individual blogs giving away some blog candy of their own to those who participate. So stop on back . . . the hop will be from Sept. 28 8am MST to Oct. 1 8am MST.

Okay, onto my cards I did.

For the 1st challenge, we were to use a bible verse or inspirational verse. Here's what I did:

For the 3rd challenge, we were to use a these of snowflakes but NOT Christmas. Here's what I did:

For the 4th challenge, we were to use a triple time stamp technique (Here's a tutorial on how to do it). Here's what I did:

For the 7th challenge, it was "Christmas is for Kids". So we were to do one any Hero Christmas card and one Christmas card for one of our hearoes to send to a child. Here's what I did:

I wish I would have been able to do more of the challenges, but I'm very happy with the number of cards I was able to do. And am even more excited that I'll have the opportunity Sept. 28 - Oct. 1st to make more cards for our Heroes.
